How to Use a Pumice Stone When Grooming a Terrier

    • 1). Brush the dog's hair with a wire brush and comb to remove any loose or matted hair as well as embedded debris.

    • 2). Hold the pumice stone in hand. Grip the hair to be stripped firmly between the fingers and the pumice stone.

    • 3). Pull the hair quickly in the direction of growth. This is typically in a downward motion and toward the tail of the dog.

    • 4). Continue working your way through the terrier's entire coat using the same technique until all loose and over grown hair is stripped from the dog's torso.

    • 5


      Use a stripping knife to pull the hair around the dog's face using the same technique that was used with the pumice stone.

    • 6). Once the coat is completely stripped, brush it thoroughly. This will remove any additional loose fur.

    • 7). Bathe the dog using a mild pet shampoo designed for dogs with coarse coats.
